litespeed css file is render blocking according to gtmetrix report

1.) This plugin is not a cache plugin. It is a plugin to control to web server based HTTP cache. This plugin doesn’t offer any cache function.

2.) Stylesheet is always and almost the only source that blocks rendering. The more css exists the more rendering blocks.

3.) If you see that a LiteSpeed related css blocks rendering this is not a LiteSpeed fault. Primary it is a fault of your theme. LiteSpeed cache plugin doesn’t generate CSS.

The question in your case has to be deeper investigated. Would you provide us with a link to your page?

Hi,

the CSS is actually not from LSCWP itself, but the minfied/combined CSS from your original site

you can do same test with LSCWP turned off, you will still see some CSS blocking , except with different name

and for CSS render blocking, please try load async css option

Best regards,

@serpentdriver
the page that I try to investigate is:

If I check your page with GTmetrix there are no issues with sources that blocks rendering. The test result is not really bad, but could be a bit better. The problem is that there is nothing that can be better optimized with any plugin for optimization, because your theme has too much of almost everything, but you can try UCSS feature and increase the TTL for browser cache.

@serpentdriver
thanks for your help.
I enabled UCSS. But how I can increase TTL?

In LScache plugin settings go to Cache -> Tab [7]Browser -> Browser Cache TTL

Set value to: 31536000

Don’t forget to purge cache after you make any changes at settings.

You find more interesting stuff in LiteSpeed cache plugin documentation pages and in LiteSpeed blog.

@serpentdriver Thanks

@serpentdriver

What?! that makes no sense. This plugin creates cache files, it has cache options the same as other cache plugins. I’m so confused by your statement.

@technicalx

You don’t have to be confused and it makes sense. First, each page cache needs control, but the big difference is that LScache plugin uses LiteSpeed LScache, so it is a server based cache. All others are PHP driven.
